Kazakh mining company Eurasian Natural Resources asked a British court to stall the UK’s pursuit of corruption charges following a six-year bribery investigation.
ENRC, once listed on the FTSE 100 Index, asked London’s High Court in a filing this month to force the Serious Fraud Office to withhold any charges until the completion of a review by a retired judge. ENRC alleges that the SFO investigation went beyond what is allowed for a prosecutor.
